If a murakami piece becomes available at a store, is it usually a return? An SA posted a cerise bag. I asked if it was return but they weren’t sure. I don’t want to pay a lot for a returned item. I know that these pieces are hard to get so I don’t want to be too picky. Thoughts?

Odd, another Rodeo CA reached out to me and said she will be assisting me while Chris is ‘out on leave’.

Not specifically Murakami related but Chris from Rodeo helped me secure a few Murakami pieces and I just received a text from another CA at Rodeo that Chris is “out of the business.” Wondering if anybody else received a similar message?

No, stuff is trickling in still.

Agreed. Plus, nothing is wrong with purchasing a return. I recently returned a brand new TM x MC Speedy that still had the plastic stickers on the hardware. I was able to secure two after my in-store CA had one trickle in and he sent it overnight to me around the same time the one my online CA ordered went from ‘POV’ to ‘Shipped’ status.

Not necessarily…. But why does it matter if it’s a return?

Just a preference for buying such an expensive item. I don’t have a store in my state and would rather not buy if it was returned possibly to some defect. I’ve seen a lot of posts about misalignment or stitching issues. I know you risk it either way but it’s just something I would like to know.

Hi everyone! I haven't posted here in a really long time but I was on this forum constantly around 2008+ ??? Not sure. But it was this forum that made me incredibly obsessed with designer handbags, favorite being Louis Vuitton. So I have a few bags from back in the day, I'm almost positive I bought everything through resellers and ebay. I was OBSESSED with the Eye Love you and Eye miss you, and was so happy when I finally found it! I was very young then and didn't know anything until this forum. I was so excited when these new Murakami pieces had a 20 year anniversary collection and I went a little crazy, lol. I'll show you what I have from the first collection and the second collection. This is the only place I could even think of sharing these photos.
